Aemmyjah: Brother, my stand now is the result of the rigorous research that I have done. Telling you this is not hearsay; it's what I found out myself. I have asked questions, studied books, read holy books, and many others. I still believed I had not done much yet, which is what led me here. See, if a creator should exist, it probably cannot be the one the Bible describes. I would do better for humans than a biblical god if I had his or her power. Yes, Muslims claim the Qur'an was inspired by Allah. So, God also inspires other religions. The IFA book is on Amazon if you want to order it. Which religious book did you want me to mention? Is it the one that predates the Bible? Or what? 1 Like 1 Share |

gisevak: Have you seen a Koran before Can you easily access it Can u read it Why do I have to order IFA book? You will never do anything better for humans if you had the power You should do research on why God allows suffering? |

Aemmyjah: You're breathing heavily. calm down. No one is fighting you. I'll try to explain in simple terms for you. The universe is unbelievably complex, without a doubt. While I accept that, there's no evidence to show that some sort of divine hand or being in particular, caused it. That's just anthropomorphic thinking. In case you don't know what that word means, it means thinking about the "cause" of the universe in light of having human characteristics. Moving on. The reason why a god, or higher being would not suffice as an explanation, is because without a doubt as well, you'd agree with me that whatever alleged god you believe was able to cause the universe would also need to be incredibly complex as well... so the question of complexity is not really answered. Its just pushed a step further and we're left asking what caused the complexity of the god. Back to the law of Cause and Effect Made a small correction for you there. Also, I never claimed the universe came from nothing, or is the cause of its own existence. It was either caused by something eternal or someone eternal- An Uncaused, Timeless Creator... Now hold up there buckeroo. There are several blaring problems with your conclusion. 1. there's no reason to believe that the cause of the universe is eternal. If the universe is 14 billion years old, what stops the cause from being 50 billion, or just 15 billion? What evidence is there that suggests that the cause MUST be eternal? How would you even go about verifying if something were eternal or not? It just seems like a pointless claim, like omnipotence or omniscience. 2. There's also no reason to believe that the cause of the universe must be a someone, talk less of that someone being singular.. but i won't get too much into that. We don't even know the beginning to time and space but we accept these even though it is too wonderful to comprehend I don't understand what you mean by "we don't know the beginning of time and space." Care to expatiate? Also, since when did we start "accepting" things we don't understand? Who is the "we" in this situation, because I sure as hell didn't get the memo. |

Aemmyjah:For real it's something they should answer. If everything came by chance, why should I even mind anything he says, his comments definitely came by chance, he didn't think nor did he use intelligence lol. Nairaland forum came by chance. I eat by chance, my digestive system works by chance, nutrients are transported through my body by chance, I excrete by chance. Brother some people's sense have been blurred ![]() ![]() |

Aemmyjah: This is a weak attempt at a false dichotomy. If you want to know how dumb the question sounds, replace the word "brain", with "god" Let me help you. Do you have a god? Yes Is your god a product of accident or intelligent design? That's how your question sounds. 1 Like |

Re: How Do Atheists Address The Question Of Human Existence? by Maynman: 9:37pm On Sep 29, 2023 |
cornelboy:How will you know Existence without non Existence? Please look up definition of "create", what does it say? You are just regurgitating "by chance" since. You said it yourself that your god has no beginning, was your god not existing? That means Existence does not have a beginning. Educate your mind. |

cornelboy:What's a person? Person means mask, the mask you wear outside to portray a particular personality. Alan watts once said, "how to be genuine person means how to be a genuine fake". You have a personality, you are not it.
